Story

This year the Gloster Gang are helping the Manta Trust to raise money by taking part in their Cross the Oceans 2022 challenge - to help them get to a collective total of 5,575km from the Mid-Altantic to Isla Mujeres in Mexico.

Charlie and some of his school friends will be running 30 miles on their new school running track at break times and lunchtimes - GO Charlie!

Jonny and I are running 100km (62miles) in May - fitting it around work and kids!

As a family we love the ocean and marine life - especially manta rays ;) Very sadly they are increasing becoming critically endangered due to fishing, Asian Medicine Trade and climate changes.    

BUT with your help the Manta Trust can help with global efforts to push for conservation measures to protect manta rays and their devil ray cousins.
